Hello

Are field I/O divided sections that can be powered with two diffrent levels.
My problem is that i have 5V volt Hall limit switces and 5Volt MPG, but I allso have 12V lamps for indicating.

And while typing this I notice that MPG is connected to TB3 - so thats allready 5V?

But can I power part of the Field IO section 5V for the Hall sensor and rest for 12V?

The 7I76E uses the same field power for field I/O so all digital
inputs will have the same threshold.

I guess an option is to use 5V lamps or perhaps use the 7I76E
analog inputs for the limit switches along with the comp (compare) component

(the MPG inputs use a different threshold for counts so work with 5V signals)
